{"product_id":"sun-river-ben-nickol-9781625577122","title":"Sun River","description":"Fiction. With beautiful and harrowing distillation, Ben Nickol's stories reveal how we love and how we lose what we love. Deft and affecting, this is an impressive collection.--E.J. Levy \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eLike the river itself, Ben Nickol's stories wind through some wild and rich country, full of beauty and peril both. Leaving the pretty myths behind, Nickol sets off into the lives of everyday people doing all they can to get by on the edges of wild places. These are stories and lives that will stay with you long after the last page is turned.--Pete Fromm \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eThe stories in SUN RIVER bear the clean force and beauty of a Rocky Mountain rainstorm. They are fierce, tugging, and unforgettable. Sometimes a new American voice comes to us like dark thunder. Ben Nickol is that voice.--Alyson Hagy \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eBen Nickol's SUN RIVER is an exquisitely crafted and thoroughly engaging book of short stories set in North Idaho and Western Montana. Struggling with decisions made by and for them, Nickol's men and women bicker and yearn in off-putting witticisms and common sense wisdom. His study here is nothing less than an American vernacular, the language of a people worn and scarred by time and place and decisions big and small. However flawed and desperate, they try, they endure, hopeful and defiant. Illuminated by hard-won insights, Nickol's SUN RIVER is a meditative, rewarding read.--Marc Bojanowski\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Ben Nickol\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 1625577125\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781625577122\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Black Lawrence Press\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 05\/31\/2019\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 250\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.50lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 8.40h x 5.50w x 0.50d","brand":"Ben Nickol","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":44078532985087,"sku":"9781625577122","price":18.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_85ce80ac-c6dd-4835-968b-17c15745369d.jpg?v=1685476066","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/sun-river-ben-nickol-9781625577122","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
